April was a very rewarding month. I spent nearly the whole month pushed to just below my breaking point for stress tolerance - and I really enjoyed it. Forced to balance all-out sprinting on projects with planning and self management, the month brought that variety of satisfaction unique to peak productivity.
The projects:
- A very challenging (for me, at least) xylophone and glockenspiel part in the Ginastera Harp concerto with Lake Union Civic Orchestra.
- My first ever interactive visuals performance (for the Hildegard recital).
- Wiring and electronics for an exhibitions company
- And of course, putting up Woolgatherer. Most of my work was pre-performance, building the set, the inverted stilts, developing the narrative, and managing the production (which of course has plenty of performance-time work, as well). Check it out: Seattle Times.
